    the keys to beating prime mike would be long arms short torso long legs

    jab, smaller target for those body shots & long steps to get out of the way

      I'd give Ali, Liston, Foreman, Frazier, & Dempsey a chance.

        Trying to picture how this goes down... Thing is, Wilder has fast feet and reach... There is an argument that he might get there first.

            In their PRIME. Both Klitzchco’s. Lewis of course. He proved that. Holmes and Bowe and of course Holyfield who was just a beast. A giant slayer.

He lost twice to evander, never fought Bowe. In fact I think he was very very carefully matched after he came out of prison.
              Lewis chin was average he only defeated Mike because he was out of his prime. Imagine if Tyson fought him while he was in his prime Lewis would be sleeping in the canvas.

                The Klitzchco bros I doubt it especially Wldamir. If Wldamir could get KO’d by Brewster imagine what Tyson would do to him. Vitali is close but if Lewis could cut him badly imagine what Tyson would do. Lewis would get KO’d in the early rounds against a prime Tyson. I think Bowe would whoop Tyson.

                    Too many to mention, that's 200+ lbs

                    Mike would lay waste to those sloppy AF back in the day MFers, doe.

                      Funny enough I think Fury would be hard work for Mike, provided he didn't get caught in the first couple of rounds
